What grinds your gears? There are a lot of things that irritate me, most of them are typical run of the mill, mild annoyances, but I discovered a new one recently; the sound of water being poured from a water thermos into a styrofoam cup. It's not the sound of the water hitting the cup that does it, but rather the "unk unk unk unk unk" sound the water makes leaving the spout.
This lady in my office, a sweet woman by every measure, brings a jug of ice water to work every day. Each morning, I get subjected to the "unk unk unk unk unk" that has become akin to Poe's Raven, or the tapping of a pencil upon a desk to my ears.
I want to grab the water jug, run to the door, unscrew the lid, and throw it down the hill towards the parking lot. Bless her heart, she is a sweet dear of a lady, but she is driving me fucking bonkers.
What similar experiences are your personal hell?

Office birthday parties. I feel like Elaine from Seinfeld. At least our office does one collective party a month for all the birthday people, but the kitchen area is about five steps from my office. Some of us have elected not to participate, and have instead chosen to keep the work moving, and your loud obnoxious fake laughter annoys the piss out of me. I even went as far as to remove my name from the birthday list but I cannot escape it.

I hate having a small penis.

Stupid people.

computers that stop working for no apparent reason
lightning that strikes and fry's 5 things in your house.

I hate having a small penis.
You're gonna hate getting older then........The wrong parts get bigger.....
I hate it when I give my kids an answer, they think if they talk about it enough, I will change my mind. Has never happened once. But by God, this could just be the first time.

I hate corporate cliches. And people that use them liberally because they think it makes them sound cool amongst their peers.
Let's take that offline.
Let's table that.
Let's incorporate a global e solution.
ALL BS.
It lead me to start playing this game - Bullshit Bingo:

Throw in "retire the risk" and "effect a change" and you could work for my company.
-
When I go to the store, I like to get what I need and get the hell out....sort of like sex. So, when these retards are hanging out in the middle of the aisle catching up on the last two years of bullshit, I get irritated.
-
People who snack all the time at work. The guy that sits next to me I have nicknamed Snack boy. Its not that he snacks really, its the fact that when he does, everyone knows it. Its like when he goes in to retrieve his handful of heaven, he pillages around a while like he's raping the bag. Not only that but I swear the guy spends $10 a day at the damn snack machine. Like not even 30 minutes after lunch dude has him some fucking Cheese Puffs he is making love to.

Maybe you just need to be a "team player" and improve your "skill set" and "core competencies".

Being the old codger that I am, there are many things I despise about where we've gone and where we're headed with technology. It's true enough that the advances have made many things easier and there are an incredible amount of entertainment choices. But in my view, it comes with a price. Things have become so impersonal and people simply don't talk anymore. In our little mom and pop firm, mine and my partner's office are separated by one thin wall. We email back and forth..too damn lazy to get up and walk 12 feet. I spend my day making a ton of calls to people who simply won't pick up the phone. But you can shoot an email to them and you may get a response.
I admit to texting a lot and part of me wonders why. When texting became the big thing years ago, I used to ask my daughter, "Why don't you just dial the number and say what you've got to say?" LOL, dad...LOL. A couple of years ago, I was at the ballpark with mini snags for his game. We were leaving and I stopped to watch this game for a second because something caught my eye. At least half the kids out on the field would be considered morbidly obese. Why? Becasue going back and forth from the dugout to right field is the full extent of the exercise that chubby little Jacob gets. Where is he the rest of the time? Eating and sitting on his fat ass playing X-Box or Playstation or Guitar Hero. While mini isn't fat by any means, he'd still choose X-Box over a back yard whiffle ball game 100 out of 100 times. When's the last time you drove through a neighborhood and saw kids shooting baskets in the driveway? There are kids all through our neighborhood....but you almost never see them outside. Too many computers and games to play inside.
When we go to the beach for a week, I may catch 5 minutes of TV the entire time. And that's just because Wes forces me to guzzle down cold draft beer in a sports bar with 15 TV's mounted throughout. We got to the beach house last time and Mrs. Snags almost lost it. "I can't log on....what's happening? How will I bookface? I'm not connected to the world anymore....what is this strange place?" How bout' closing the laptop and let's hit the pool, or the beach, or take a bike ride, or meet Wes for cold draft beers?
I know the good far outweighs the bad and most of you younger people know not of which I speak. You've grown up in this social media generation with some new advance to enjoy almost daily. And here I sit, typing to a group of people, many of which I've never met with names like R2D2 and Snaggletiger and G4AU4500. Do I love it? Yes. This is my diversion from work and stress and I've made a lot of good friends over the years. But truthfully, it irritates the piss out of me that about 10 years from now, we're never going to leave the house for work or entertainment or just about anything. We'll just lay in bed all day with some contraption hooked to our foreheads and communicate telepathically.
And no, I don't even know what 4G means.

I know I see more kids outside playing "sports" when I drive near the projects or the black parts of town. Makes sense. Most of the black kids don't have as much so they tend to fall back on the primitive old school activities. I actually like this. Most of them don't have as many luxuries as the more well to do kids on the north side of town. I drive around that area and not a soul out in the yard or driveway. I can almost guarantee they are watching the LCD, on Facebook, Texting or on a gaming system. Maybe I am just using a broad brush but I also see fatter white kids. I rarely see a fat kid playing b-ball in the projects.

Bad whiskey aggrevates me. Or Bourbon to the layperson. :poke:

A lot of truth in that. You're naturally going to see more people outside, even if it's just sitting on the porch, in lower income areas simply because of not being able to afford to plunk down $300.00 on the latest gaming system then hundreds more on the actual games etc.

My two oldest are like polar opposites. The youngest of the two is always outside tearing shit up, building forts, playing lazer tag, etc. The oldest? Sitting on his skinny ass not doing shit but on his Ipod texting or on Facebook.
What irritates me is when you ask your 15 yr old to do something and he half-asses it because he is fucking lazy. :hulk:

You need to take them down below the railroad tracks in Eufaula and let them spend a day playing b-ball with the black kids. It'll harden em up. Especially JoJo.

Yes. 90% of those that drive shouldn't. I have met Cullmans match though trust me. I think the very town I currently reside in is worse.

Shit, shit, shit, shit, SHIT! I can't. Sounds great though. We (youself, AU_Tiger_2000 and myself) need to hit that place up one evening for sure. I could go for a couple of Belzbuth's or some Abt 12 on tap.

I hate it when my dick wants to work and no ones around but me to have sex. (Internet)
It absolutely flames my ass when I let someone in while I am already on the road and they don’t simply acknowledge it with a wave of their hand. A simple thank you-I am already on the road I don’t owe you jack shit but I am kind enough to let you in. No thank you from you, you just fucked everybody the rest of the week.
